HEADPHONE  
A 3.5mm stereo jack provides two channels of adjustable level analog audio for monitor headphones. 
Headphone Output Connector 
PIN  SIGNAL  DESCRIPTION  DIRECTION 
A (TIP)  LEFT  Left channel audio  Out 
B (RING)  RIGHT  Right channel audio  Out 
C (SLEEVE)  GND  Camera ground  -- 
The camera’s four audio channels may be monitored in pairs: either 1L - 2R or 3L - 4 R or as a quad mix 
of 1+3L – 2+4R based on the MIX parameter. Default is 1L-2R. 
Output volume may be adjusted as follows. 
Volume: (master volume) Adjusts headphone volume equally for left and right outputs. 
  Range is -18dB to 0dB in 1dB steps. Default is -9dB. 
NOTE: for maximum output signal quality, only use high impedance headphones. 
SYNC (VIDEO SYNC)  
A 4-pin LEMO connector supports shutter synchronization, GPI, timecode and genlock input signals. 
The shutter Sync input signal acts as an immediate response hardware trigger to commence a scan. 
This is useful for motion control and other applications where the camera is driven by a master timing 
device.  When using SYNC  as the camera shutter  timing  reference,  fine  shutter start time timing 
(SHUTTER PHASE) is disabled; make any desired timing adjustments at the external SYNC generator. 
Alternatively, this input may be used as a GPI (General Purpose Input) trigger, whose function is 
programmed in the USER KEYS menu. Default function for the GPI trigger is Record Start / Stop. 
The SMPTE timecode input provides a frame accurate time stamp for each frame of recorded video. 
External TC must be chosen in the Project > Timecode menu. When SMPTE timecode is detected it will 
align the internal TC value to the external TC signal at every :00 frame crossing of the external TC signal. 
The Video Genlock input may be used as a vertical interval reference signal for the sensor and HD-SDI 
outputs when precise synchronization is required between cameras, such as for 3D and live broadcasts.
